| | Uhhh, Scream better than X, are you serious. That's a bit shocking of a statement to me. If it's true what you say, I might just reconsider even going to California to ride coasters since X is just about my primary reason to go there. I've been on Medusa east, and it's, well, alright, but it certainly doesn't look like it could compare with X. But, OK, whatever you say, I guess I'll take my coaster riding elsewhere . . . .
. . . .  . . . man, and I heard X was awesome, guess I was wrong . .

| | | TMProd, your signature's too long. Please change it to fit our rules (only eight points. Yours is 12).
You've got some pretty good pictures there. Why did you choose to upload the ones with the reflections or car parts in it? Couldn't you try to take better shots?
What is that last picture? Also, if you want better shots of the coasters at night turn your flash off. The picture of you in front of Batman looks pretty good because the flash is off.
Did you have a good time at the park? Care to give us more for a trip report?
Dave, you're going to have to give it a shot. X is the best coaster in the park, and it's the best coaster I've ever ridden. Scream! is my third-favorite floorless coaster, and I've been on three. It's really not that impressive.
X is simply amazing.

| | | I also thought that Scream was better than X. After Goliath, it's my favourite ride at MM, especially at the front. |

| | | I havn't been there, but I would think X would easily win against Scream!, having been on Kraken. But I think Goliath looks loke the best ride there, as I have seen the entire park from the interstate or w/e road runs by it. |

| | scream is not, i repeat not medusa. there are different elements which make it better than X. plus the shortest wait time for X ive ever seen is 3h. and that when they admitted people like me with season passes on the ride.
X is one of, if not the best coasters, but ive ridden it so many times with fast pass it just doesnt appeal to me anymore. since i have been on scream only 2x it is now the best ride  . Also if ur judging by my statement saying Scream is better than X making not go to MM. remember it has more coasters than any place on earth (18) currently holds a lot of records:
Revolution, first ride EVER to have a 360 loop (were would we be without loops)
Colossus, was the longest & fastest wooden coaster (cmon, we all love woodies)
X, first and only 4th dimention coaster in the world(enough has been said here)
De ja vu, tallest and fastest shuttle coaster(good foward, better backwards)
Viper, i forget this but its something to do with inversions(6 loops, ohhh)
Flashback, worlds only hairpin coaster(nice compact coaster)
Superman, first ride ever to breach the 100mph barrier(without this, it would have taken a lot longer for TTD)
Goliath, ranks 5th for tallest and fastest ride in the world(the smoothest coaster on earth)
AND SFMM is the most money making park of the SFI, also has more inversions than any park in the world (oh yea baby, 31).
SO, i officialy declare anyone who does not want to go to SFMM for a reason regarding my statement stupid.
regarding the pics, its kinda hard taking pictures when no flash = no picture and flash = crappy picture. these were the curcomstances at night. dont go on riddlers, it is just long and boring, so is ninja. |

| | | TMProd: Scream! is Medusa whether you like to accept it or not. It's Medusa, mirror-imaged. Although going through all the elements in the opposite direction does make for a different experience.
And Deja Vu isn't the tallest and fastest shuttle. That would be Superman The Escape. |

| | I'm pretty sure. Everytime I'm there, I see a FastLane queue for X. That doesn't account for that line being open all the time though.  | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
